Oooh Shabba - I'm sure you'd be really proud of me and OH today! OH shot two HUGE and I mean HUGE rats with his air-rifle today. They have been living in and around Jerry's stable for weeks so hubby took the air-rifle up there today and sat patiently til dusk. Then one appeared - big mistake. Hubby shot it instantly. About 5 mins later, 2nd one appeared - only to be dispatched instantly!
I'm not under any illusions though - I know there'll be several more living near the stable but I have to say I am quite impressed with hubby's shot. Very accurate!
He actually quite enjoys the whole thing to be honest - it's a boy thing!
That said, I was quite impressed with the accuracy of his shot - he got both rats in the head from about 100 yards!
Another (cruel but effective) way of dispatching of rats and mice is to use the swing-bin method. Paste the lid of a swing-bin with peanut butter, rat jumps onto lid, lid swings, rat falls into bin.
You can either have the bin full of water therefore drowning rat after rat is exhausted from swimming or be prepared to kill rat with shovel etc.
